VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 16, 2021 – Listen up burger lovers! This Thursday, A&W Canada, the MS Society of Canada, and Christine Sinclair, Olympic gold medallist, all-time leading scorer in international women’s soccer, and Canadian women’s national soccer team captain, are celebrating the 13th annual Burgers to Beat MS Day and rallying Canadians to raise awareness and crucial funds to help people living with multiple sclerosis (MS).
On Burgers to Beat MS Day – Thursday, August 19th – A&W Canada will donate $2 from every Teen Burger® sold via drive-thru, take-out, the A&W mobile app, dine-in (select regions) and third-party delivery partners across Canada, to the MS Society of Canada.

- Drive-Thru: A&W restaurants with drive-thrus are open. You can order as normal, or order ahead using A&W’s mobile app for contactless payment.

In its 13th year, A&W Canada hopes to raise more than $1.5 million for the MS Society, bringing the total to more than $17 million raised in support of Canadians affected by MS. This initiative is close to the hearts of A&W Canada and wouldn’t be possible without the dedication and ongoing support of A&W franchisees, who have worked around the clock to ensure this year’s campaign supports the tens of thousands of Canadians living with MS.
